 It is unfortunate, but a reality. No way will I ever put this coin reverse up! |

Wow - I also noticed the SOLD OUT sign. Hard to believe, unless a lot more people like me got sucked in by the subscription. Good move RCM. Or, maybe they just stopped production, and called it the day. Giving the illusion of success. Well, RCM needs to move on to the next one anyway. |

I ordered mine when the RCM put them up on the website, got them in the mail two weeks later. But I'm still waiting for the Two Loons |

"dealers are paying up to 15x face value for SILVER coins" not necessarily the $20 coin. Yes, I've seen a roll of silver quaters ($10) sold for $170 on ebay... so 15x is believable. |

But we are talking about the $20 for $20 Queen coin.
That he sale for $125. Will you buy it?

The ad for the $20 is quite misleading. Yes, dealers are paying 15X, but not for this coin. It is for pre 1967 Canadian silver dollars that have .80 silver content. These silver dollars have .60 troy ounce of silver. The spot rate for silver is around $30, so .60 troy ounces is
$18. That is the sell price for $1 pre 1967 silver coins. His buy price is $15. So 15X refers to fifteen times $1 face value.
He is trying to make you believe it is 15X times the face value of the Jubilee coin which is ridiculous. The actual silver value of the Jubilee is actually around $6.25 due to the weight of the coin which is 7.96 gram, far below the 18.664 gram of the old silver dollars.

I am trying to imagine the disappointment someone will get when paying 125$ for this coin. Not to mention it is small, it is also one of the very few coins that RCM's picture actually looks better than the actual coin. Don't get me wrong, I still like this coin, the details are there when look through a magnifying glass, but that is when it's being sold for 20$. BTW, happy Canada Day long weekend everyone. |

I am impressed enough with the coin, it should hold some commemorative value in future years, particular after the bird croaks.

@Anjohl Do you seriously believe that with all the stuff out there with her mug on it that demand for the Queens image is going to be high? Might need to rethink that one, when queeny passes they will commemorate the sh*t out of her image. No value in this one.
